Abstract: Transmitter localization and signal mapping may be accomplished by receiving measurement data from a plurality of nodes, the measurement data including a signal strength value and a geographic location for the signal strength value, triangulating the plurality of measurements using triangulation, and establishing at least one contour representing a level of signal strength. A system may receive measurement data from a plurality of user equipment, and use that data to localize an interference source and create a contour map.

Abstract: A method for sharing spectrum between a primary user and a secondary user includes receiving a signal transmitted by the primary user at a first network equipment of the secondary user, determining a first attenuation coefficient for the first network equipment, estimating interference from the first network equipment at a receiver of the primary user, and adjusting parameters of the first network equipment.

Abstract: A method for handling a jamming signal in a wireless network includes obtaining network measurement data collected by a wireless network element. A first performance information relating to a Key Performance Indicator, data collected during a quiet time, or a report on a bogus Physical Random Access Channel signal, or a combination thereof, is selected from the network measurement data. The first performance information is examined with respect to a first reference information. An action is initiated if the examination of the first performance information indicates the presence of a potential jamming signal.

Abstract: Interference may be detected in a cellular network by receiving signals at a target base station in a quiet resource block in which no uplink transmissions to the target base station are scheduled to occur, identifying a plurality of user equipment attached to base stations neighboring a target base station as interfering user equipment, reconstructing signals transmitted by the interfering user equipment, removing the reconstructed signals from the signals received by the target base station in the quiet resource block, and determining interference in the signals from which the reconstructed signals are removed. Detected interference data can be used to create an interference cancelling receiver.

Abstract: A method for coexistence with a pulsed interference source in a communications network includes receiving a communications signal, determining a first portion of the communications signal that is affected by the pulsed interference source, blanking the first portion of the communications signal, and processing the communications signal.

Abstract: A method for coexistence with a pulsed interference source in a communications network includes identifying transmission time intervals (TTIs) that are affected by pulses from the pulsed interference source and changing a transmission parameter for the TTIs that are affected by pulses.

Abstract: A method for scheduling wireless transmissions in a wireless communications network in the presence of pulsed interference includes receiving pulsed interference information, determining transmission opportunities based on the pulsed interference information, and when a transmission time interval (TTI) is less than a time of an opportunity of the transmission opportunities, transmitting a wireless signal during the opportunity.

Abstract: Identifying interference in a cellular network may include creating an interference neighbor list for a target base station that includes a plurality of neighboring base stations, determining a plurality of quiet resource blocks common to the plurality of neighboring base stations and the target base station, and analyzing signals received at the target base station during the plurality of quiet resource blocks. Whether to modify uplink transmission schedules, and the extent of modification, may be determined based on traffic levels.

Abstract: A cooperative interference subtraction scheme includes receiving a first baseband signal including an interference signal at a first base station, receiving a second baseband signal including the interference signal at a second base station, calculating a channel translation parameter based on the first baseband signal and the second baseband signal, receiving a signal including a user equipment (UE) transmission at the first base station during a first time slot, and subtracting interference from the signal including the UE transmission using the channel translation parameter.

Abstract: Detecting and jamming a wireless network using an intelligent jammer comprises determining that a signal source is an unlicensed signal source, synchronizing the intelligent jammer with the unlicensed signal source, determining a time and a frequency of a protocol signal associated with the unlicensed signal source, and transmitting a jamming signal according to the time and the frequency of the protocol signal. A system for detecting and jamming a wireless network comprises a first intelligent jammer, and an Intelligent Detection and Jamming Server (IDJS) coupled to the first intelligent jammer.
